From Rising Fawn.
Mb. Editor: —Since my last
communication the Railroad au
tnorities have made this place a
flag station for their cannon ball
trains; so we are elated and I’m
sorry I didn’t write something to
take back and apoligize for.
By the way our young friend
Jim Blevins has a regular job
braking on a. freight train and I
predict that he will make a No. i
man and will be conductor some
da}% if he don’t too soon forget
that its not so high to the top of a
bridge from a box car as from the
bank of the creek. So be careful
Jimmie and never stand up till
you’ve crossed the bridge.
The Rev. Wra. Blevins and
Smith Adkins went to the furnace
last Sunday and assisted the Rt.
Rev. Peter Anderson in his revi
val. If Willie’s eloquence and
Smiths singing etc., cant raise the
darkey’s drooping spirits theres no
use getting Sam Jones and Mike
Allison. I learn that Rev. Mr.
Aiken and Mr Pickle are going
over to-day to assist Peter. That’s
right, I believe iii missionary work
at home. Then, it costs less to
convert a nigger than it does a
Chinaman and he’s worth more.
But the boys say is going over just
for fear that Wili Blevins will
make a Methodist of Peter who
has here-to-fore been a staunch
Baptist brother. Don’t be mousy
on that score brother Pickle, for
the Methodists in this circuit are
two sting} ‘osunport a Minister of
Peters cali’ he knows it.
Well. I was iv
the other day too, and among oth
er things I learned was:
Charley Killian has bought a
house and lot above the big spring
and says he now has as much right
to go in Sugar Hollow as Dr. Fricks
or anybody else over had.
Bob Steel and Bid Stewart de
clare that they just accidently
went to the Lime quary well the
other morning, bu f , that the moth
er of a beautiful young lady who
gets water there about that time of
day met ’em and gave them “hail
Columbia” to such an extent that
those accidents will probably ‘cease
—I mean at the well.
Mr. and Mrs. Atridge have gone
to bouse keeping and are “at home”
to their many friends.
Mason Herndon says Lizzie
Johnson bites faster and harder
than any nigger he ever fought be
fore and that he wouldn’t have hol
lered quite s quick as be did if
the men in the stock house hadn’t
been wanting the water he had
gone after.
W. T. Murphy goes to Kensing
ton every few days. 'Make haste
Pat and bring her back.
The furnace has made an aver
age of 115 tons of good iron per
day since it has started up, which
doubtless accounts for the serene
expression on Capt. Connors jovial
phiz.
The company has had to get
more convicts on account of the
scarcity of free labor. Then where
is there room to complain ot hard
tiirrs when labor is scarce at such
liberal wages as that company
pays?
Of other things I saw and heard
[’ll tell at some other time. U. U.
From Wildwood.
Mr. Editor : — Here we are agair,
but may get in the soup this time.
You will please allow me to say
right here that there is nothing
personal in any ot these commu
nications unless expressly so
stated.
The request in our last commu
nication for the school report was
not intended for a cast at anyone
The word “steal” was used simply
to carry the idea that there was no
economy in the mode of distribu
tion of the funds according to the
4
present law.
The fence question: We will take
as an example for illustration the
974th, or creek district. The total
amount of ‘stock in this district
which habitually runs outside will
not. exceed in valuation $1250 and
the cost of fencing the crops of
this district is not less than $lO
-and this fence will not last
upon an average more than eight
years. So we see that the annual
cost of fencing costs an amount
equal to the gross value of stock.
Now this stock costs one-third of
their value to winter, also they will
destroy an amount equal to one
third of their value of crops on ad
joining farms by occasional raya
ges. So we see that the farmers
loose every year an amount equal
to SBOO. A sum w*hich will pay
their taxes, or run a school twelve
months every year. Is it any won
der that we complain of hard times
when there is such an amount go
ing to naught annually? Our sys
tem of living in this country is
like pouring water upon sand. In
stead of talking so much about who
is president we should look more to
home economy. I do not mean
that w r e should not look to the in
tegrity of representatives and offi
cials but should look to both .
